Hunter density may be great on both properties. If that were the case, I would find the good areas where others may be less inclined to travel. I would search for this on both properties. There are many hunters that don't scout land like they should but just show up. Use what scouting skill you have to your advantage. The funnel concept is very good but have a back-up. A lot of times others may be thinking similar to you. Concentrate also on food, water, bedding sources. Also, try to locate areas where deer may lay down but receive direct sun on really cold, snowy days. The extra effort you make will separate your success from theirs.
